Hi Italo, yet another great information video and Thank You for the education about the front fork / wheel spindle potential misalignment. I learnt something new today!
Greetings, As always another brilliant detailed video production 🇺🇸🍾🎉🇺🇸 Why would I have to do this alignment, any type of symptoms, or do I have to do this every 6 months? (What is the reason) Keep producing more videos about the CRF.
Hi Roberto! Thanks for the positive comment! This should be standard procedure when tightening the front axle. Always do the axle first, compress the suspension then finish with the pinch bolts. If the axle is not aligned you would increase the wear of the front suspension bushings
In my manual it's 22Nm for pinch bolts. Just make sure to tighten them several times one after the other because they influence each other by deforming the base metal.
@@RoiaMoto The manual also reports 29 Nm for the lower fork bridge, which is clearly a mistake, every mechanic knows it, even the 22 Nm for the leg is too much, there is no point in tightening that much, and you risk ruining the thread.

Thanks for checking it out! Would love to hear your feedback!
Great job being thorough and giving good explanations on what you're doing and why. Thanks!!!
My pleasure!
thanks
Great explanation. Also, that little important part about not wiggling the handle bars after alignment! And before retightening of bolts.

15 Nm, non 22

On mine also says 22nm

Thanks for sharing! Wasn’t aware about that
